We would absolutely stay again

The cabin was just outside of town, so easy to get to grocery stores, restaurants and other places. There was also a lot of hiking /biking trails nearby. The cabin itself was clean, well stocked with bedding, towels, toiletries, basic spices, cooking items and dishes. Entry instructions and departure instructions were easy to follow. They had plenty of information about the area inside the cabin. The backyard was private from the other cabins, and fenced. The hot tub worked well, and was also clean. We would definitely recommend this place to others, and will be back ourselves.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Buffalo Ridge 3 is one of five cottages in a small development off Hwy 93 headed north out of Whitefish. The setting was nice and the cabin was well equipped and precisely as advertised. We enjoyed the hot tub which was clean and easy to use. We called the management company about one small thing and they picked up on the first ring. She was able to fix the problem. Everything in the cabin was well cared for. There is plenty of outdoor space to walk around and we even went up to the "lodge" which was unoccupied. There were plenty of nearby trails and restaurants in Whitefish. We should mention that the cabins are close to the road and the noise is noticeable. Just something to be aware of.
